RKC Wood Care Pros installs fences across Lexington — cedar privacy, vinyl, ornamental iron, chain link, and gates. We respect historic-district standards and handle the bluff-top terrain other crews avoid. Based in Olathe, serving the wider KC metro. Free estimate.
WHY LEXINGTON HOMEOWNERS HIRE RKC
Lexington’s historic district is the most exacting visual environment in our service area — one wrong picket profile or paint color and your fence looks out of place. We work the metro one neighborhood at a time and bring the same install standards to every job.
We source ornamental iron finials, wood picket profiles, and paint colors that match existing historic-district neighbors. Your fence blends into the block visually — which is what historic-district review committees actually reward.
Custom stepped-panel work, rock-drilling into hillside limestone, and grade-matched post heights. Lexington bluff lots aren’t level-grade installs, and pretending they are is how fences end up crooked within a year.
Most fence contractors hand you off to a separate stain crew later. We don’t. The RKC crew that installed your Lexington fence returns for the staining rotation — and we maintain the historic-appropriate finish.
LOCAL CONDITIONS
Lexington sits on the Missouri River bluff with a historic core anchored by 19th-century architecture and a deeply local preservationist community. Those two factors — the terrain and the aesthetic standard — drive nearly every spec decision we make here.
Lexington’s historic district overlay covers fences visible from the street inside the core — meaning style, material, height, picket spacing, finials, and paint color all matter. We walk the block, photograph existing neighbor fences, match the profile stock, and document the submission for review. Most historic-district rejections come from homeowners who tried to match visually by guessing instead of by photographing what’s already on the street.
A meaningful share of Lexington lots sit on the Missouri River bluff with grade changes that require stepped-panel fence transitions — where each panel steps down the slope instead of following the grade continuously. We cut panels to match the slope breaks, custom-set posts for each step height, and rock-drill through hillside limestone where necessary. The 36-inch minimum post depth still applies at every step.
